New Kia Sorento Plug-In Hybrid for Sale near Rice, MN

Plug-in hybrids like the 2025 Kia Sorento PHEV are great for local electric-only driving and family road trips.

The 2025 Sorento Plug-in Hybrid provides an estimated 31 miles of electric range, enough to cover part or all of a typical commute. That’s also plenty for local errand-running and kid-schlepping. Then, when you need to travel longer distances, a gas engine keeps the party going. And this year, Kia’s midsize three-row PHEV gets a refresh with revised styling, new technology, and more. So, we put it to the test in the Los Angeles suburbs and on a family road trip.

Verdict: Except for its lofty price and lousy value equation, the 2025 Kia Sorento Plug-in Hybrid has few faults. Some of the technology causes aggravation, and we discovered the driver’s seat isn’t comfortable after hours on the road. Otherwise, this PHEV is stylish, practical, and easy to live with.
